I did some searching on the Plasti-dip and it sounds like pretty good stuff, so i went to HD today and picked up 3 cans. I also got all of my prep supplies. Looks like ill have new color rims by tomorrow night! Ill keep you guys updated.

 

i just bought a leveling kit for mine......any tips or tricks on installing it ?

 

Ha needs bigger tires now!! Seriously looks great nice job!! So what kit did you put on? How much and where did you buy it?? Hell ya I'm nosey!! My baby is running great now and its time for some mods LOL

 

just put my 3'' spacer on it looks good, only took like 3-4 hours and used nothing but a floor jack and a wrench

tip - use 2 rachet straps to compress the passenger coil when putting it back in.

ill post some before and after pics later

 

what size level kit was it 2" or 2 1/2"?

 

2"
It was a Hell Bent Steel 2" kit for 65 dollars shipped. I got it right off their website. The 2 1/2" was like $85, I figured half an inch wasn't worth it but now i wish i could have seen what it would have looked like.
Watch out for all the break lines and hose type things when your dropping the axle down low to get the spring out. Breaking one of them might be alot of unwanted work.
I wish I would have thought about that, would have saved a couple of minutes on reinstallation!


Ill make a diy on this asap and use all my pics!

 

looks nice !!

 

I agree, it looks great. I'm looking at getting the hell bent leveling kit too just not sure if the 2" or 2 1/2" would look best.

 

Just measure how much higher the back is sitting then the front. You may not need the extra 1/2".

 

I have an 01 ram sport looks almost exactly like yours and from the looks of it I think I might be getting a leveling kit as well. What customizations did you do to your door panels?
